Below -- First HPDE with the car. At this point we were building it for K-Prepared. It was still a 325i and basically street legal. We installed a Ground Control suspension, sway bars, strut brace (which we don't run any longer), chip, header and cat-back exhaust. I think it took us 45 minutes to load the car on that trailer.

Above -- NASA HPDE at Willow Springs in Rosamond CA. This is the earliest version of the track car. At this point we were still running Z rated street tires.

Below -- The freshly built, never started M42 turbo engine prior to installation. The engine block has a new coat of black paint. The valve cover was power coated.

Below -- M42 turbo exhaust manifold. This part was purchased from 666 Fabrication. This manifold was the prototype. We had just received this back from Jet Hot which is a powder coat process for high temperature applications. We managed to burn this off in a few hours of track time.

Above -- After testing the Turbo M42 powered car at the track we realized that we needed more braking power and a larger contact patch. This is the UUC Willwood kit. We upgraded to 235's up from on 17 x 7.5's up front and 255's on 17 x 9's in the rear.
